Do you know what I'm really annoyed about? :angry:

I can find a 1/18 Model of an

R32 GT-R +

R34 GT-R +

R35 GT-R...

But for the life of me, I cannot find a (metal) model of an R33 GT-R !

Only Tamiya (plastic)

AND THAT STINKS!!!!!!!!!!! :down:

NO JUSTICE!!!!!!!!!!! :D

yeah i voted: for the skyline that has the best balance between curves and straight lines = R33

R32 GTR all the way. You could dangle the keys to any other car in front of me,and I will grab the 32 everytime. Theres just something about that late 80's shape and feel that has won me. I appreciate all the others....but R32 GTR is my Dream car

Ive always loved the sexy curves of the R33 GTR.. but im a series 3 kinda guy - they have to have the lower front lip and the series 3 xenons. :angry:

34 GTR comes a close second, i was recently considering buying a sexy looking bayside blue R34 GTR but couldnt get my head around the slight boxyness of its ass, still considering if its the next car for me. But other than that, damn are they sexy or what! :D

Very tough choice indeed. I love the shape of every model ranging from the 32-34, but I had to go with the 34. Regardless to say, any tough line i see on the street will drop my jaw :D

i like the r33's with a gtr or 400r front bar and an intercooler behind it, looks mean. However i dont like the standard r33's with the standard front bars, their ugly.

where are the dr30 and v35 and v36?

f**k them.

Where's the Hako?

Heres a little something to sway you guys just that little bit further in my direction.. hahah :down:

Yours is one of the tidiest I've seen, and one of the few that I don't instantly dislike (Wilch's being one of the others) but I'd still take an R32 or R34 over them.

I just wouldn't be emo about the looks if I did own yours.

    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
    • wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
    • nice work, welcome to the world of CAD! fabricating accurately in 3 dimensional space is beyond me....I almost always end up making something more than once...sorry I mean I extensively use prototyping
